WebGPU Inspector - Debugging Tools for WebGPU

"WebGPU Inspector" is a Chrome Developer Tools extension designed for debugging WebGPU content. It intercepts all WebGPU objects and commands, providing detailed insights into GPU objects, including their creation stack traces, error capture for shader modules, and live shader editing. Users can capture frames, display textures at any mip level, and plot profiling information like frame times and GPU object counts. Additionally, it supports debugging shaders, viewing buffer content, and recording commands to create a standalone HTML file for frame rendering.

Very useful already! Immediately caught a TextureView resource leak the first time I used it. Being able to see each buffer and texture on a frame is also incredibly useful.
